Rack Specifications

Observe the following rack specifications for the Cisco UCS 6600 Series Fabric Interconnect.

Overview of Racks

Install the fabric interconnect in these types of cabinets and racks, assuming an external ambient air temperature range of 0 to 104°F (0 to 40°C):

  • Standard perforated cabinets

  • Solid-walled cabinets with a roof fan tray (bottom to top cooling)

  • Standard open racks


Note


  • If you are using an enclosed cabinet, we recommend one of the thermally validated types, either standard perforated or solid-walled with a fan tray.

  • We do not recommend using racks that have obstructions (such as power strips). The obstructions could impair access to field-replaceable units (FRUs).


General Requirements for Cabinets and Racks

The cabinet or rack must also meet the following requirements:

  • Standard 19-inch (48.3 cm) (two- or four-post EIA cabinet or rack, with mounting rails that conform to English universal hole spacing per section 1 of ANSI/EIA-310-D-1992). For more information, see Requirements Specific to Perforated Cabinets.

  • The minimum vertical rack space requirement for the fabric interconnect is 1.75 inches (4.4 cm) per chassis.

  • The width between the rack-mounting rails must be at least 17.75 inches (45.0 cm) if the rear of the device is not attached to the rack. For four-post EIA racks, this measurement is the distance between the two front rails.

Four-post EIA cabinets (perforated or solid-walled) must meet the following requirements:

  • The minimum spacing for the bend radius for fiber-optic cables should have the front-mounting rails of the cabinet offset from the front door by a minimum of 3 inches (7.6 cm).

  • The distance between the outside face of the front mounting rail and the outside face of the back mounting rail should be 23.0 to 30.0 inches (58.4 to 76.2 cm) to allow for rear-bracket installation.

Requirements Specific to Standard Open Racks

If you are mounting the chassis in an open rack (no side panels or doors), ensure that the rack meets these requirements:

  • The minimum vertical rack space per chassis must be equal to the rack unit (RU) of the chassis. One rack unit is equal to 1.75 inches (4.4 cm).

  • The distance between the chassis air vents and any walls should be 2.5 inches (6.4 cm).

Requirements Specific to Perforated Cabinets

A perforated cabinet has perforations in its front and rear doors and side walls. Perforated cabinets must meet these requirements:

  • The front and rear doors must have at least a 60 percent open area perforation pattern, with at least 15 square inches (96.8 square cm) of open area per rack unit of door height.

  • The roof should be perforated with at least a 20 percent open area.

  • The cabinet floor should be open or perforated to enhance cooling.

Your equipment rack must conform to these requirements.

Cable Management Guidelines

To help with cable management, allow additional space in the rack above and below the chassis to make it easier to route all of the fiber optic or copper cables through the rack.
